Update Amidst the Current Crisis

My original goal was to get the last book out by April 15th, but that will likely slip out by a few weeks. Early May is a more likely target. I had thought that being home would help speed things up, but there are lots of distractions with the coronavirus crisis taking up a lot of my attention.

I was able to squeeze in a vacation to Hawaii the week before everything shut down. It was a great vacation, and so far, no symptoms…not that I expected any. We returned on March 15th and everything closed down in Hawaii after that.

So with everything, my writing suffered a bit. I took an iPad and a keyboard with me to work while on vacation, but the keyboard was too flaky, so I made little headway. I have gotten into more of a rhythm and have gotten more done. As of today, March 21st, I am 40% complete with my first draft and expect to continue to make decent progress.

I hope that all those who read this are keeping safe and making good decisions in these strange times we find ourselves in.
